YAY!! First comment! My favorite holiday is Halloween! I like to dress up and go out and see all the wild costumes! And, the candy, of course! I’m to old to trick or treat but I take my son and he loves it!!

my fav holiday was in 2006 to South Africa (Johannesburg, Pretoria & Sun City)! the experience i gathered there is immersely valuable and dear to me, as it open my mind about the culture of other races and learn about respect, and how big and beautiful the world is!

My favorite holiday is of course Christmas. It’s just the season, the decorations and it just makes me feel all tingly inside. I love getting and receiving gifts. I especially love the family dinners with all the great foods.

My fave holiday is Christmas because I get to spend time with my family. I’m close with my fam & they’re really important to me. During Christmas, I get to see my relatives from all over the country. Everyone’s usually in good spirits & I just love the feeling of Christmas. I love to see X-Mas lights & seeing all the decorations. I enjoy it very much.

I love any holiday that gets me some time off from work!!! LOL but I have a few fave holidays… Christmas because I love everything about it (the gifts, the weather, seeing my family, and everyone just seems to be so pleasant around that time)… Thanksgiving because I love to eat!!! And last but not least, Carnival!!! Being that my family is from the islands, Carnival is big deal and we try to make it to at least one every year!

you and your amazing contests
my favorite holiday was a tie between halloween and christmas but really its christmas. i love the way it smells and the music and the spirit and i have nothing but good memories from christmas. it makes me happy

My favorite holiday is when my family went to Koh Samui, Thailand.
We went to a resort called the Karma resort and it was AMAZING
We had a private pool, 3 bedrooms which are separated into little bungalos a living room that is also separated. the living room had a kitchen, a tv, couches and a dining table and everything.
We spent so much time in the resort just relaxing and soaking ourselves in the sun. We listned to music…watched movies and drank alot of cocktails. it was amazing!

My favourite holiday would be Christmas; although my father died 2 years ago, I will remember all holiday we spent together with my family. Usually I would come home on Christmas eve (let’s not mention the times I would miss the train :))) and my parents would wait for me and my brotehr to come home and decorate our house. My mom would cook my favourite brownies and I would sit with my father in the kitchen talking about school and job and cookies These are the memories I keep in mind, although Christmas is really sad now without my dad

My favorite holiday is Halloween! The first reason is because it’s the closest holiday to my son’s birthday (October 14th) & the 2nd reason is b/c it gives girls like myself who don’t work in the fashion or beauty industries a chance to dress up & be overly glamorous! This year I’m gonna be a sexy leopard! With the full leopard makeup! I’m über excited!!

My favorite holiday is Easter. I love the pastel colors. I love the religious aspect of it. I love getting together with the family. I love the Easter Egg hunts with the children. I love the weather.

Thought my favorite holiday season is Christmas. I love the feeling. I love the atmosphere. I love the hapiness. I love the sales. I love mint. I love the clothes; boots, leggings, gloves, scarves. I love being with family. I love that there’s no school. I love the songs.

My favorite holiday is Christmas. I love everything about it, I love the decorations, the coldness. I absolutely love the smells. Love the 24 hour marathon of “A Christmas story” on TBS! I am 24, and really haven’t experienced the gift opening portion of Christmas in a long time. I was always more into buying gifts for everyone, and wrapping them really pretty. Also looked forward to always buying that extra toy to drop in the Toys for Tots box at whichever department store. Even if I am short on money, which always tends to happen around that time. I still make do with what I have. I enjoy every part of it. I know it is better to give than to receive. I am lucky to have friends and family who are thankful for whatever they get. They don’t complain, and if I get a gift, no matter what it is, even if It’s body wash from the Dollar Tree, I don’t mind. I love it, its very much so appreciated!

My favourite holiday is CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!
I start celebrating from the 100 days! I love the music, the lights, all the colours, the foods. It’s the most delicious most decadent period. I’m already celebrating it right no.

I love Christmas. I love the cold and snow and that it’s dark early and the lights in the streets and the christmas tree and the delicious food from my mom and that everything seems to be so calm and peaceful.

My favorite holidays are Christmas and New Year’s. I love Christmas because of the Christmas trees, the decorations, the twinkle of the decoration lights and on trees, and everything! I love New Year’s for we can celebrate the end of a good year and start a great new year and plus my birthday is right around the corner (Jan 4).

I think my favourite holiday is christmas because I get to see all my family. I LOVE just sitting around the christmas tree and listening to christmas music. I hate all the sress though …
PS. I’m liking these “retro” MAC giveaways!

My favorite holiday is Christmas. I am a teacher so I have time off around Christmas, so I find it really relaxing. I love spending time with the family and decorating the house, wrapping presents, etc.

My favorite holiday has got to be HALLOWEEN. Of course. Who doesn’t love a holiday where you get to dress up, step out of harsh reality for an evening, and get free candy?! Of course its also another excuse to go crazy with make up, haha

the best time of the year is certainly the holidays. the hot chocolate, family together, gifts wrapping, the smiles on children faces and santa’s warm lap. lets not forget the fashion! and warm fall trends. its the time of the year where all families come together regardless of religion, to share the joy with all.
